U.N. says Libya sides agree to truce talks

Political News

Libya’s warring parties have agreed to restart ceasefire talks, the United Nations mission to the country said after weeks of intense fighting near the capital Tripoli fueled by foreign arms. The talks will resume based on earlier so-called ‘5+5 meetings’, involving five senior officers appointed by each side.

Two ceasefires have already been agreed this year but both shelling and fighting continued. U.N. envoy resigned in March and the Security Council has yet to agree on a successor.
